The Reformer Vol.1

"Australia, the Great South Land of HOLY FIRE!"
To my Dear Brothers and Sisters in the Lord,
Grace and peace be unto you more and more as you partake in the grace that is from above. May His life flood through you like a raging fire sweeping through the dry parched land.
There is a call been sent forth across this great South Land of the Holy Spirit. A call to be set apart, a call to forsake the world and embrace the ways of the Kingdom of our Lord Jesus Christ. The trumpet has sounded for the church in Australia to awake from its’ slumber and rise in the power of the Spirit to bring forth revival and reformation into the hearts and minds of multitudes across this land. That which has been prophesied by men filled with God is about to come to pass in our time. We dare not miss it. We cannot afford to allow our time to pass without grabbing hold of it with our whole hearts and minds and laying aside all things that have been weighing us down as a church. It is time NOW! Do not delay any longer, seek the Lord while He may be found. Feel His heart beating for the lost and dying souls of this nation; see His compassion reign down on them as He stretches forth His hand to heal.
“Arise and shine for your light has come and the Glory of the Lord has risen upon you.”
On May 14th of this year it was the 400th anniversary of the declaration by the Portuguese explorer Captain Fernandez de Quiros over this nation by the Holy Spirit of our destiny.
“Let the heavens, the earth,.....and all those here present witness that I Captain Pedro Fernandez de Quiros…… in the name of Jesus Christ…. Whereon He gave His life a ransom and remedy of the human race ….. on this day of Pentecost, 14 May 1606 ….. I, take possession of all this part of the South as far as the Pole in the name of Jesus….. Which from now on shall be called the SOUTHEN LAND OF THE HOLY SPIRIT…
and this always and forever… to the end that to all natives, in all the said lands, the Holy sacred evangel may be preached zealously and openly.”
Amen.
Four hundred years have passed since that time. Just as the time between the last time God spoke in the Old Testament (Malachi) till when Jesus was born. The Israelites entered into their promised land after four hundred years of slavery in Egypt. Likewise they were made a sovereign state after four hundreds of rule by the Muslim hordes, the victory secured by 2 groups of 400 Australian Light Horsemen.
I tell you the truth. It is time for Australia to come into its promised land of abundance in the Holy Spirit. This nation will see in the next period of time a turning to the Lord like never before. More and more Christians are going to be urged and pressed hard by the Holy Spirit to give up their apathy and to lay a hold of all that God has for them. They will not settle until they are full to overflowing, and even then they will desire more. We will see the greatest outpouring of the Holy Spirit that the world has ever seen in one place. People will not be able to walk down the street without coming under tremendous conviction of the Holy Spirit for their sins. Men, women and children will be running to the alter to cry out for mercy, where they will find it in abundance. The sick will be healed, the blind eyes opened, the deaf will hear, the lame will walk and the poor will have the gospel preached to them. Believers from all walks of life will be walking in the power of God, baptised with the fire of the Holy Spirit. These are the ones who will be ministering unto the lost and hurting souls of this land. These precious saints will be marching in unity and love across all denominations unconcerned for themselves and what rank they hold, but rather more interested in see others go beyond where they themselves are at.
Oh what a Glorious procession across this land it will make, leaving a wake of fire where ever it goes. Can you see it church? Can you here the call of the Spirit to lay aside our entertainments and time wasters and pursue Him with all our heart, mind and strength?
Where we have been comfortable, God will stir up a boiling pot underneath us. We will either choose to get out of the pot and run with Him, or we will stew in the indignation and apathy that many have come to expect from us Aussies. God never wants any to miss out on the calling. He desires all to come into fullness of life. He is limitless in all things except one. YOU! Only you can decide to follow Him or not. I can try and persuade you, but ultimately it is your decision. Decide today that you will stand up and be counted. Make a quality decision right now to lay a hold of all He has for you. Start seeking Him in prayer and through His most blessed word. He moves us through His word and oh how He longs to commune with us through it. Lay aside all the sin that so easily trips you up and give God the rightful place He requires in your heart.
I urge you my Brothers and sisters in the Lord to heed the call of the trumpet and awake from your slumber. Arise and shine for your light has come and the Glory of the Lord has risen upon you. Dare to believe that God wants to use someone like you. He loves you and has many an adventure to take you on in Him. Trust Him explicitly for He is faithful to His word and watches over it to perform it. Allow His perfect love to drive out the fear and insecurities that have bound you these many years.
May His peace flow to you and through you by the Holy Spirit, and may His word have entrance into your heart watered by love and tended by faith.
Your Brother in Christ,
John Olsen.
